What I think happened is that Babers time sensitive offer from UCF but he didn't want to NOT coach in the MAC championship game. UCF needed to hire someone quickly. I'm sure Babers was #1 coach looked at. I think I saw he did interview on Sunday with UCF. Just speculating. But, If I was Babers I would be in no hurry to jump at a new job. I would want to coach the conference championship game. More offers are coming for him. I think UCF had a lot of incoming resume's from agents that they had the opportunity to make a quick hire and demand that hire to start work immediately. <---- did I mix the coffee to strong? I feel I'm blabbing.
